''Serving up raw catchy hardcore punk that still manages to keep it's melodic side and be thrashy from start to finish. That's quite a feat. Where their contemporaries fail at keeping your attention and songs seem to become a blur, the Lobotomies manage to fuse their punk and hardcore influences into a coherent assault leaving their generic counterparts waning.
DIY hardcore punk as it was meant to be. With so many shows under their belt they just keep getting better.''
We've been lucky enough to share the stage with bands like: Propagandhi, Strike Anywhere, Leftover Crack, MDC, Oi Polloi, Citizen Fish, Anti-Nowhere League, Droppin' Bombs, Only Fumes and Corpses, Axis Of, Cut The Reins, Officer Down...to name but a few!

Firstly, thanks for having us a friend! We really do appreciate it, it's a hard slog being an original band in Belfast, or anywhere, at the moment.
Secondly, do you, or anyone you know, like to play bass? And do you, or this person who you know who plays bass want to play bass in a gigging rock band?
The Hubris are recruiting. Mark is hanging up his plucking pinkies at the end of the year and we need to find someone who can do what he can do.
We're after a bassist who likes his/her rock music. You can see our style, we've been compared to loads of punk bands, old and modern. John from Bruised Fruit described our recent demo thusly: "This is class - really well recorded and really catchy. It's like the Jam meet Green Day meet The Clash and it's a three way explosion of awesome." (Thanks John - hope you don't mind us quoting that to death!)
What we're after is someone who's, well, who's good at playing bass really. Have good attitude, be willing to practise up to twice a week, and tear up every gig we get our mitts on. Ideally the ability to backing sing would be good. If you write tunes then, great. We'll see how that goes with the overall Hubris sound.
We've played quite a few gigs since we started gigging in July, and we have more gigs booked into the future (as you can see on our page), our current bassist is staying with us until we get someone new in - because he's bloody great! As soon as we get someone on board we have the opportunity of a load more very soon. We were played on Feile FM a couple of weeks ago, listeners texted in and asked for an encore.
Loads of scope for you to take a songwriting role if you fancy, plus we're a very easygoing bunch of people who have a good laugh as well as work hard.
